 hmm, still a work in progress, but at least I'm getting a little better at using it. My hair is usually pin-straight so it's a bit tricky. Had to air brush my face a bit since I din't have my makeup on yet. I think I look weird here, but w/e. Also cloned in over part of my face that was showing through my hair. Lost some of the detail in my hair due to neatimage, but I had to because my face was so noisy. bleh.

Nice portrait and I like the one eye being hidden. I see the cloned spot and it really stands out, at least to me. A quick way around the NI issue would be to select the face and run just NI on that - the magic selector thingy does a pretty good job (I would try this first). Or you could have created another layer and then masked out the part you don't want the NI applied to. Once you've done it a couple times, it's really easy to do.

Your eye looks much prettier here than in the previous shot! I feel your pain when it comes to extremely straight hair, some days you just can't get it to do anything!

Nice portrait -- you look very pretty and fun at the same time. Good use of denoise, it doesn't seem overly-smoothed.
